Cocktail Splash Cranberry

by Richard Herpin

Marc Jacobs Cocktail Splash Cranberry is a Cologne launched in 2011, created by Richard Herpin. Cocktail Splash Cranberry opens with Cranberry and Mandarin, settles into a heart of Red Currant and Honeysuckle, and dries down to a base of Woody and Musk. Marc Jacobs's Cocktail Splash Cranberry carries a Favourite verdict, a fruity-led wear.

This one's a friendly, albeit generic, fruity-floral that feels very Y2K, like every other scent of that era. Don't go in expecting a tart cranberry hit - it's mostly sweet, shampoo-y freshness that isn't really memorable.

Best Seasons

Best For:
Summer

A summer scent - airy and clear, designed for hot weather.

Best Occasions

Best For:
Office Casual Sport

Its light, inoffensive fruity-floral profile makes it suitable for casual wear and the office, as it's unlikely to bother anyone. The lack of strong projection and depth means it's less ideal for formal events or a romantic date, where something more distinctive might be preferred.

About

Opens with a juicy, bright burst of mandarin and vague red berries, leaning more sweet than tart. The heart adds a soft, indistinct white floral touch, reminiscent of honeysuckle, before settling into a clean, musky base with just a hint of wood. It's a linear, fresh-off-the-shower scent, more bath spray than sophisticated perfume.
